I have no idea what's made it suddenly so uninsurable. Funnily enough a mk5 R32 is a few hundred pounds cheaper

Something definitely not right. I’m 38 with 8 years no claims, have a mk5 gti remapped to 265bhp, suspension and brake upgrades and alloys all declared and my insurance is £370 with Sterling. Car is an import aswell.
Octoparrot:
Have you tried the price comparison sites like Confused.com? I do my Insurance through them and they allow you to declare mods, mine has lowered suspension and aftermarket exhaust declared. My insurance through admiral has actually gone down this year but I am 47 with max no claims.

I was with Directline for 6 years with the GTI but a customer for over 10+ years, same mods every year (no points, no accidents, full NCB) then they said they would not offer a renewal and no reason given......got quotes and went with Admiral for £380, which is the same as what I paid with Directline. :stupid: Mehh!

Greenlight insure modified cars at a good price i found i have a mk5 running 341bhp so lots of mods i only declared it as 250 bhp but there's no way of them knowing the exact horsepower i was insured for the year at just under £600 only downside was i had 5000 limited milage but you can request bigger mileage will just cost a little more
